Camaro never gets old...

I haven't been behind the wheel of my Camaro in over 10 days.

I got that Sh*t eating grin on my face all over again.

Will be like a new car every year after 6 months in storage.

:( I feel your pain, guys...:(

My car is a yr round dd, and I could not imagine not driving mine for 6 months a yr...

I would seriously cry...

You can check in with any of us that are still driving our cars this winter to get your "fix"...lol...

Already bought the snow tires and rims...

Hope we have an "easy" (fingers crossed) winter...

I've termed it CWS.....Camaro Withdrawal Syndrome....and I'm seriously going to lean on C5 and my buddies here to get me through it. I may go ahead and invest in different wheels and tires so that I can keep driving on the nice days when it's cold here but the salt and gravel they drop on our roads is just brutal on the paint and undercarriage! :(

I already cancelled XM and my insurance will cease the 31st.

I really don't mind waiting, but wish Hurst would make a shifter for my 03 Cavalier!

I hate using a car cover, but have to to protect it, because I can't look at my car .

I'll wait until the first major snowfall, before it gets stored away, my insurance co. said all I have to do is make a call and let them know :(.
At that point only fire & theft coverage stays on.
Then in Spring, a phone call puts full coverage back into effect .

I'm sure glad I live in the south. It would kill me to not be able to use my Camaro once it comes in!

I think by dealing with winter, and storing our cars, we have more appreciation for them, come Spring time. Not that people in warmer climates don't, but just in a different way.

There are plenty of nice dry days in the winter. I won't be driving mine in the snow, slush or salt, but not parking it either.

You don't have to live in the south... putting the car away in the winter is a choice.. some of us drive year round regardless of the snow we get.
